Gandharaajan


Gandharajan, how truly someone has named this flower and thats what they call it in Malayalam. I dont know what this flower is called in English or in any other language and the only plant that I had seen is at my ammuma's (grandmother's) place. Gandha means smell no not smell but more divinely FRAGRANCE oh yes! its fragrance and not smell. Calling Gandha smell in english would be an insult to this flower. And Rajan means the King.. so in short the name signifies "THE KING OF FRAGRANCE" and how truly it lives up to its name you will have to smell it to know it my all time favourite flower for its fragrance. Its fragrance is truly heavenly, blissful......
